CSX Philly Sub Stack Train!
Author: Ironman

FYI:

Sorry, I have no photo to share, however a double stack train made its way from Philly to Sea Grit in Baltimore earlier today.

This is a first!

Sea Girt is down towards Bay View Yard on the east side of Baltimore, therefore these trains do not go through the Howard Street Tunnel.

I believe the symbol is I(eye)104.

Do you know if this will be a regular train or when the next one will be? I know that symbol is new in as far as the IM that go to Baltimore now.

I-104 is listed as daily, Bedford Park, IL to Penn Mary, Baltimore, MD.

I'm thinking CSX finally completed undercutting the "tunnel" in Darby, PA. I believe this was the last doublestack obstacle, other than Howard Street tunnel in Baltimore standing in the way of north-south Atlantic coast stack trains on CSX.
Sea Girt Terminal in Baltimore can be accessed directly from Philadelphia, Howard Street obstructing any stack movement south. There is a new container terminal under construction in the former Bethlehem Steel Sparrows Point site that will double the container capacity benefitting both CSX and NS.
Interesting developments
